What's "reverse" racism btw? I mean either you're a racist or you're not, so reverse racism would be not being racist or what? I don't know, and I'll probably make a fool of myself now, but it seems to me people who use this term somehow seem to think only white people can be racist (at least judging by the way it was used here) or that black people can't be just called racist, but because whites feel it's somehow "payback" it's reverse racism when black people are racist? I know it's just semantics but really calling something "reverse racism" is nonsensical. Sounds like someone trying to be politcal correct, but having not quite grasped the concept of PC a.k.a. PC gone mad. |

Fatty is right: we have been living in a white millenium, or in our country at least a white couple of centuries. I'm all for 'Colored', Women's and Gay organizations. Everybody needs a place where he or she feels welcome. But the fact remains that things are out-of-balance when one group feels that they can't be an '-ist' because of who they are, and another group can't express themselves without becoming an '-ist' in the eyes of everybody else.

I think that's an obfuscation, but you could be right, so unlike some I won't argue with it. But I think the point still stands: some get away with what others can't, and while I couldn't care less about 'white' anything, we still have the problem that the divide is kept open partly by people who claim they're trying to close it.

Equality isn't where everyone can justly do what everyone else can do, even if their circumstances are very different. Even so, it is certainly true that, whether justly of unjustly so, doing something that would be morally questionable if someone in different circumstances did the same isn't going to promote unity.

That's like saying yes when asked if you want sugar or salt on your grits. I m sure all the Asians in the pictures will be thrilled to know that they just lost their ethnic background. ![]() Last edited by Thomen; 12-13-08 at 09:04 PM. |

Calling it a "white millennium" serves no other purpose than to accentuate and perpetuate racial separatism. If man is ever going to get beyond making social divisions based upon race we must stop using such terms.
